What to know

Franck Muller has introduced the Vanguard Ram Lalla Limited Edition, created for the Indian market with Kapoor Watch Co. The watch is housed in an 18-carat rose-gold Vanguard case and is limited to 108 individually numbered pieces, a figure chosen for its spiritual significance in Hindu tradition.

Its dial centres on an appliqué depicting Ram Lalla, the childhood form of Lord Ram. Franck Muller says the relief is produced through detailed laser work requiring roughly 30 hours, followed by polishing and finishing that gives the motif pronounced depth against the dial.

The integrated strap combines rubber with grape-based vegan leather and is fixed to the case by concealed screws rather than conventional spring bars. The official announcement does not state dimensions, calibre details, price or a separate retail date, so those fields remain deliberately unfilled.
